Millwall 4 Hull 0: Steve Morison at the double as Lions maul Tigers to go top

Millwall continued their dream start to life back in the Championship after Steve Morison fired two goals to help the newly promoted side soar to the top of the table.

You would never have guessed that two divisions separated these two teams last season but Millwall followed up their opening 3-0 away win over Bristol City with another emphatic display.

Morison, who netted 23 goals last season stole the headlines again with another brace while Kevin Lisbie and Liam Trotter made it a day to forget for Nigel Pearson's side.

Hull's dreadful away form continued and they have not won on their travels since March 2009. Pearson will have to end that miserable record quickly if they are to stand any chance of gaining promotion straight back into the Premier League.

Millwall showed they are not just in the Championship to make up the numbers and got off to the perfect start when they opened the scoring after just 13 minutes.

James Henry's corner picked out Morrison who rose the highest in the box and directed a powerful header past Matt Duke.

The home side doubled their lead on the half hour mark when Henry's cross fell to Lisbie who nodded the ball home from close-range.

No guessing who set up the third goal after the outstanding Henry saw his corner fall perfectly for Morison inside the box on 52 minutes and his looping header flew over Duke into the corner of the net.

Millwall completed the rout on 60 minutes when Trotter's close-range header gave Duke no chance and gave Pearson plenty to think about on his long journey back to Hull.
